Reattack vs counter attack

[Dark Energy]

This got discussed in FRL I think.  It lingered in my mind.

Reattack — re …. Means to do it again.  Attack once, attack again.  Chain wrestling in a way.  

Counter attack …. Attacking post an attack by an opponent.  

Wrestler A shoots, adjusts, shoots again — a reattack.

Wrestler A shoots, starts to back out, and wrestler B gets his own shot off at that time … a counter attack.

Differs from a simple counter movement (like a shin whizzer).  It is a counter attack.

What say you?

Doesn't seem like much to argue with there................however I'm sure someone will.

Do you consider BB's current poster attacks to be counter attacks or reattacks?

2 attack posts in a row is an attack then re-attack

If you respond and he attacks , it is a counter attack.

If he is clearly proven wrong and doesn't respond it's a MedFFT

If he is clearly proven wrong and does respond, it's most likely an off-topic fake attack to not get called for stalling.

Any chance of a blood timeout in these nonstop attacks?

The blood timeout is in the same realm with the squeal rule... It would be an attack by BB  that is then countered in such a way that it  places BB in a position of getting pinned, but then calls for the blood timeout or squeals getting the potentially dangerous in order to get himself out of the predicament.

Here is the response from chatGPT:

 

"

In wrestling, a counter attack is a technique where a wrestler counters their opponent's move by quickly switching from defense to offense. For example, if an opponent tries to take down a wrestler, the wrestler can counter by using their own momentum against them and taking them down instead.

A reattack is a technique where a wrestler tries to regain the offensive position after being put on the defensive. For example, if a wrestler is taken down by their opponent, they may try to use a technique like a switch or a bridge to quickly get back to their feet and take the offensive position again.

The main difference between a counter attack and a reattack is that a counter attack is used to prevent an opponent's move from being successful, while a reattack is used to regain the offensive position after an opponent has gained an advantage. Both techniques require quick thinking and good timing to execute successfully."
